More than a month after Ancelotti declared that Ceballos would be an important player “in the final stretch of the season”, the footballer from Utrera has hardly had any chances. Only Vallejo has played fewer minutes (14) than the midfielder. Now he would welcome returning to Real Betis if the Italian coach was still at the merengue club the following seasonaccording to Francisco José Delgado in Be sporty.
In the last winter market the Betic club already tried to take control of Ceballos, but he decided to stay in the capital. Ancelotti’s good words encouraged him to continue trying to get minutes, but the reality is that Ceballos’ presence on the field of play has been nil (five games, in which he has distributed a goal assist).
According to SER, the return to Real Betis is an option that the three parties see well: the club and Pellegrini would be delighted to have Ceballos in their ranks, who would like to go out in search of opportunities, and Ancelotti, who don’t see a good attitude.
